Chapter 453: Colorful Goblet

Meng Zitao felt that the exchange just now was a little weird, it might be a conspiracy relationship that he often encountered, he made some preparations, in case something happened, he would definitely let the other party lift a stone to shoot himself in the foot, so he put the matter aside.

Next, everyone found a restaurant to eat and chat, and when the time was almost up, they said goodbye to Jiang Lao and went back to the hotel. ……

Soon, it was the day of the auction that Zhang Jingqiang said.

The auction starts at 10 o'clock in the morning, and everyone takes a car to the service center where the auction is held at 9 o'clock, and after registering, they enter the auction site.

The only items in today's auction are some confiscated imitation porcelain, and the other things that have been confiscated because of the penalty involved in the case are not participating in the auction today for some special reasons.

This made some people who knew in advance feel very disappointed, including Meng Zitao, and in addition, some people heard about such a change and were not ready to participate.

However, Meng Zitao's main goal is to imitate cultural relics, and by the way, to experience the atmosphere of this kind of auction, it doesn't matter much now.

Since there are only 30 imitation porcelains in total, the organizers of the auction did not hold any previews, but just lined up the lots for everyone to appreciate, anyway, they are all imitations, and there is no need to look at the real or fake, just look at the quality, and whether they are satisfied with it, so the speed of the participants is very fast.

Because of the relationship of time, Meng Zitao and they briefly browsed one by one, and found that the level of these imitations is indeed relatively high, and some can even reach the level of fake, and the collection value is still okay.

"Hey, there is actually a Xuande colorful goblet. Shu Ze laughed as he held a multicolored goblet.

When it comes to Xuande Wucai, it was once a mystery in the history of ceramics. According to the record of "Essentials of the Museum": "Xuande colorful deep stacking". In the fourth volume of the Ming Dynasty Wang Shixing's "Guangzhi Interpretation": "Xuande is colorful, the stacking is deep, and the kiln is shallow", and it is also contained in Gao Lian's "Yan Xianqing Appreciation Note": "Xuande Wucai is also the beauty of sitting on the upset, such as leaking empty flowers, filled with five colors, Hua Ruoyun brocade, there are colorful real fills, gorgeous and pleasing to the eye."

It can be seen that as early as in the Ming notes, Xuande colorful porcelain was recorded more. However, for a long time, the controversy over Xuande Wucai has not been resolved for a long time due to the lack of physical objects. Around the Xuande Dynasty whether there is a colorful one, no one can convince anyone.

Until 1984, a photographer accidentally took two photos of Xuande five-color official kiln bowls, and finally after Mr. Geng Baochang identified it as Xuande official kiln, and in 1988, in the porcelain capital Zhushan Imperial Kiln Factory ruins unearthed a "Ming Xuande year" mandarin duck lotus pond pattern plate, so that the Xuande five-color dispute is more clear. The mystery was revealed.

However, Xuande five-color porcelain, due to the scarcity of the world, most people have not seen it, there are actually four pairs here, and the production is still present, Shu Ze feels a little novel.

Everyone was also curious, and they picked up the goblets and looked at them.

These goblets are all of the same style, with an extravagant mouth, a curved belly, and a flared high foot, with a convex ridge in the middle. The outer belly of the bowl is painted with colorful dragon and phoenix patterns, shuttles lightly between the clouds, the convex ridge is decorated with a circle pattern, and the foot wall is decorated with blue and green sea water patterns, the waves are churning, and the momentum is surging. The six-character regular script of the "Ming Xuande Year" in the double circle at the bottom of the goblet is written.

Although these goblet ornaments are the same, and the artist's painting level is quite high, they still look a little different in terms of glaze color and other aspects because of the glaze and kiln temperature.

But in any case, these pairs of colorful goblets are still pointable, and they can even be compared to official kilns.

Just as everyone was observing and discussing these pairs of goblets, the staff next to them reminded everyone that the auction was about to start.

These pairs of multicolored goblets were placed in the last position, so everyone had seen the other lots, and when they saw that the auction was about to begin, everyone put down their things and found a row of better sight spots.

In the end, the auction is only some imitation antiques, and there are really not many people participating in the bidding, and the hall that can accommodate four or five hundred people is sparsely sparsely sitting, and unfamiliar people are basically not sitting next to each other.

Just as Meng Zitao was about to sit down, he suddenly saw a middle-aged man sitting in front of him on his left a somewhat familiar face.

Meng Zitao immediately remembered who this person was, because he was too conspicuous, middle-aged, with a big black mole at the upper corner of his mouth, and a few hairs growing on it, he looked like the villain housekeeper and other characters in the TV series, it was clearly the one he met in Gusu and Yang Ruifeng together, according to the investigation, this person is called Yuan Yanfeng.

For Yuan Yanfeng to appear here, Meng Zitao is not too strange, the strange thing is that he has lost too much weight compared to when he first met, and he looks like he has lost twenty or thirty pounds, if it weren't for the fact that this person is too distinctive, it will definitely take some time for Meng Zitao to recognize him.

Speaking of Yuan Yanfeng, I have to say Yang Ruifeng, after investigation before, Yang Ruifeng is very mysterious, on the surface he is doing a serious antique business, but there is no physical store, not to mention, the most abnormal thing is that he basically does not do business with antique dealers in Ling City.

Moreover, on the surface, the origin of the antiques in Yang Ruifeng's hands is normal, but in fact, it does not match his financial dealings.

And investigators found that three months ago, Yang Ruifeng's account had a large amount of money flowing, but it immediately returned to normal.

In this way, after a period of careful investigation, it has now been basically determined that Yang Ruifeng should be engaged in the smuggling of cultural relics, smuggling the antiques he obtained from various channels to foreign countries to obtain huge profits.

The reason why Yang Ruifeng was not arrested, on the one hand, is because Yang Ruifeng does not have much evidence, and in addition, Yang Ruifeng should have other accomplices, and he may even be a member of a certain organization, but also because of the evidence, there is no result for the time being.

Therefore, the treatment of Yang Ruifeng is to put a long line to hang the fish for the time being.

Therefore, now that Yuan Yanfeng is here, it can't help but be strange to Meng Zitao, how can Yuan Yanfeng be interested in the auction of imitations?

Shu Ze noticed Meng Zitao's gaze, turned his head and saw Yuan Yanfeng, and asked, "What, do you know this person?"

Meng Zitao sat down and said, "I'll talk back to you." ”

Seeing Meng Zitao say this, Shu Ze didn't ask more.

At ten o'clock, the auction officially began, and the auctioneer first briefly introduced the situation, and then said loudly: "No. 1 imitation cultural relics, Yuan Dynasty blue glaze white dragon pattern plum vase, the starting price is 10,000 ......"

This auction item imitates the style of the plum bottle in the Song Dynasty, beautiful and straight, the whole body is dark blue glaze for the ground, and a vigorous blue and white glazed dragon is coiled around the bottle belly, blue and white are contrasted, very distinct, the authenticity of this artifact is now stored in the Yangcheng Museum.

The starting price of the plum bottle is not high, but because it is an imitation, the transaction price is not high, and it is generally sold when it rises to thirty or forty thousand, and some of the better quality may reach fifty or sixty thousand, and there is basically nothing more than this price.

The auction was carried out in an orderly manner, and because there was basically no fierce competition, it seemed to be uneventful.

"It's really boring, I said a long time ago, this kind of auction is no different from a regular auction, and what can you gain from something of no value? Shu Ze yawned boredly.

Meng Zitao smiled: "Not necessarily, maybe there will be a big harvest?"

"Didn't you just shoot two pieces of blue and white porcelain?" Zhang Jingqiang next to him became curious.

Meng Zitao smiled, and when he was about to speak, he listened to the auctioneer: "Lot 28, a pair of colorful dragon and phoenix goblets imitating Ming Xuande, the starting price is 20,000 yuan." ”

"Thirty thousand. As soon as the auctioneer's voice fell, someone made a bid.

"I'll wait until I take a picture of the goblet. Meng Zitao said with a smile.

At the time of Meng Zitao's words, the price continued to rise, and it reached the highest price of this auction in an instant, 80,000 yuan, and the one who shouted the price was Yuan Yanfeng, who made Meng Zitao feel strange.

Seeing that everyone else felt that the price was too high, Meng Zitao began to quote for the first time: "Eighty-five thousand." ”

Yuan Yanfeng turned his head and looked at where Meng Zitao was sitting, but because the back of the chair was relatively high, coupled with the angle problem, unless he stood up, he couldn't see Meng Zitao's appearance clearly.

Seeing that he couldn't see the offer, Yuan Yanfeng turned around again and quietly raised his sign to offer: "Ninety thousand." ”

"Ninety-five thousand. Meng Zitao immediately followed the offer.

"100,000 ......"

Next, the price rose alternately, and it soon reached more than 190,000.

"Two hundred thousand!" At this time, Yuan Yanfeng's face began to be gloomy, and he hated Meng Zitao who was competing with him, and he really wanted to swallow the other party alive. At the same time, he was also very puzzled in his heart, could it be that the other party saw something?

Not to mention the doubts in Yuan Yanfeng's heart, as soon as the price of 200,000 yuan came out, the audience was suddenly silent, and then a "buzzing" discussion broke out.

"What's the matter, someone actually bid 200,000 yuan for such a pair of colorful goblets, wouldn't it be crazy?"

"This person is mentally ill, there are four pairs in total, this is only the second pair, and the price of the remaining two pairs will rise to heaven if it goes on like this?"

At this time, Meng Zitao followed the price again.

"Two hundred and one thousand, these two won't fight, right?"

"I really have money and nowhere to spend it, so much money to buy such a pair of cups, there must be something wrong with my brain. ”

"Hey, it's going to be a price increase again, it can't be anything special about this pair of goblets, right?"

"What's so special, I saw that cup just now, the glaze doesn't feel right, it's obviously an imitation, even if there is anything special, how much can a pair of modern imitations be worth?"

In the midst of the discussion, Meng Zitao and Yuan Yanfeng were unmoved, you come and go to increase the price, and I don't know when it will end...... (To be continued.) )
